ABOUT FELICIA SIEGRIST
I believe in the power of entrepreneurship and innovation to create a more inclusive, equal, and sustainable world. My commitment is to reducing (gender) inequality and empowering talent and entrepreneurs in emerging markets through research, policy, and design. I do this by applying methodologies and insights from my academic and hands-on experience in business, entrepreneurship and innovation, focusing on my organizational and visionary skills to get things done. My expertise lies in gender, private sector development, and finance, intersecting with areas such as climate, labor markets, and education.Playing soccer at a high-performance level for many years has nurtured a strong sense of collaboration and teamwork within me, while my passionate work as a flight attendant has filled me with a huge knowledge and appreciation for different cultures and life realities.
